Hoping plane to-plane
Haven't enjoyed any place
Passport was always the same
Home became a prison
I had no more shelter or permission
The city put me in a vulnerable position
confinement
sentence
Convinced myself freedom is about moving
You don't know how it feels
You can't see it
Finally overcame
and understood what freedom means
Within me
And the choice to leave
Yes, I left
Don't know where
No, I don't want to be here
I don't want to die here
Where are my enemies
Stabbed in the back anytime
Or a Judas will kiss me next time
I rather leave all behind
To prosper somewhere, I will find
Broke the curse of generational fear
Since I came here
She also flee
to finally live
Hoping for joy to come back
With the roots on our back-packs
Drop the weight
This is not my fight
I open the gate
I will find light
